I would argue that gaming creates a lot more value (joy) per tflophour(?) compared to mining. How many thousands of hours of gaming equals one btc transaction?

I think most companies that already decided on the electron UX vs dev effort tradeoff will happily trade user resources for a guaranteed, uniform browser version target. It makes a big difference in development and testing.

Looks cool, but lack of apple music support is a killer for me. I feel like spotify is not the most friendly platform for hardcore music people.

Nice to see HN submissions that I also just added to reading list based on another HN submission, Litestream in this case, right?

Facebook doesn‘t need the IDFA to rack advertising in their own app but they need it to: - track advertising shown in other apps that use their advertising tools - use their main app to tie the IDFA (which is all they have from third party

The GQL features have nothing on GraphiQL+Explorer. Depending on how much you value the native UI, dynamic features etc it may still be worth it. It is for me, but I use it alongside GraphiQL all the time.

It would be cool if the NFT boom also brings us a rouge bittorrent tracker dedicated to digital art. I have a lot of respect for the artists and hope they make a lot of money, but if this comes with blockchain based DRM for viewing the art

Spoonbill updates are neat when people use twitter bios as a mini resume, like a linkedin feed of sorts. That way you can see who left facebook this week.

If that kind of thing is appealing to anyone, check out uberspace.de. It’s the best possible version of shared hosting and it can even cost 1€ too (you should pay more though). Unlike this thing they are both super friendly to all manner of

You really should though. I would say it‘s only a safe bet if you worked the same job for the entire year, got no bonuses and had no other income at all (even from the state). Otherwise you either have to do it or you are missing out on cre

IDK not a real thing, you just never see it. I feel like it's a forum not a chat room and it doesn't collapse deep threads by default so the long code makes the page very long. Probably doesn't matter though. At this point we

Allright, I didn't really come up with anything clever. I may have been to sloppy in the original function/restriction. Obviously once you start passing non-numbers, all bets are off. E.g. a simple add({a: "hello", b: &q

Yeah ok, it‘s a saturday in lockdown, why not. I have a hunch that the only way I can do this safely is with a bunch of safety checks. I have to think about wether your breaking has something to do with the intricacies of function arguments

How do you feel about adding arguments to a "single object as named arguments that is destructured in function declaration"? I can also always come up with something that breaks, but seems pretty safe. add({a:2, b:4}) function add

Yep that‘s it. Most of the javascript world is very open to beginners and not that worried about being strictly technically correct, when it doesn‘t really matter. A callback is pretty much any function that you pass as an argument. It‘s st

If it‘s feasable to shard data by user, you could put it in a close shard, most users don‘t move continents that much. I have never done this but as a latency nut I would like to try it sometime. Seems like Cloudflare‘s Persistent Objects k

No, this is nothing like lightbulbs. If you take the complaint at face value (limiting ad tracking for others more than yourself) it is a classic antitrust case: leveraging your earned position in one market to gain unearned advantage in an

I think no one (in the article) is saying it‘s worse for privacy, or if they do that‘s an easy lie. They are saying it‘s worse for competition. A competitive online advertising market may well be in opposition to the highest level of user p

I agree that a UI is well expressed as a tree, for the sake of accessibility and other reasons. I don‘t see why there is any reason to seperate the declaration of that tree from the application code. The flutter approach is bad, but all est

Cross platform is the obvious one. I think react native is "good enough" in app quality and tooling. I agree with most of your points. Developing a iOS only app is smoother sailing. The 10-50% more effort it takes to make a good R

It is doubtful that you can use react native without also somewhat understanding the android/iOS layers below so adding another layer is not super appealing.

The problem, if there is one, with the web stuff discussed here is not that it is not strict enough to facilitate two way data binding but the opposite. Modern web frameworks use stricter one way data binding because they posit two way data

For iOS and macOS there is Interface Builder that is somewhat like that. It seems to have fallen out of favour. I‘m not really sure why but I know I prefer developing code based UI as well.

I think they adopted them for good reason and they are good at what they are made for: web pages. It shines in situations where content, behaviour and presentation are seperate concerns. A good example is a CMS/wordpress (which as we k
